Surprise: Many Americans Don't Have an Opinion About Comey Getting Fired

"In short, the White House's explanations for firing Mr. Comey have shifted significantly over a matter of days, and the public does not know the actual basis for this decision", the ACLU said. "And in fact, when I chose to just do, I said to myself, I said, 'You know, this Russian Federation thing with Trump and Russian Federation, is a made up story".

Just 39 percent of Americans approve of the job President Trump is doing, according to the new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

President Donald Trump says the White House is "moving rapidly" to select a replacement for ousted FBI Director James Comey.

Trump quickly got lathered up about the media's hypocrisy.

That's quite an anecdote.

"While the specific cover is fake, it is true that there was a period in the 70s when people were predicting an ice age".

He is expected to return to the team late this season after having surgery last week for a blocked artery near his right armpit. The Blue Jays claimed Ramirez off waivers, but designated him for assignment before he pitched in a game.

The broader pattern, however, is what truly amazes. Trump simply doesn't like to admit he popped off or said something without proof. Alas, we're starting to get a pretty good idea of the answer.

But the constant stream of input from "both official and unofficial channels" can lead to consequences. And he often does not differentiate between the two.

And they're not wasting time. "The president's reaction to this has been completely misrepresented".

Just weeks ago, McFarland, who has since been forced out of the White House and will reportedly be named the US ambassador to Singapore, gave Trump a printout of a fake Time magazine cover from the 1970s that warned of an imminent ice age - a hoax image widely circulated on Internet message boards - along with a Time magazine cover from 2008 about global warming, Politico reported.

(L-R) Senior Advisor to the President Jared Kushner, White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, Vice President Mike Pence, Senior Advisor to the President for Policy Stephen Miller and White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon. The Politicopiece paints a picture of a president who lacks anything resembling critical thinking skills, being manipulated by staffers - some bent on mischief, some with their own agendas - who've discovered how easy it is to exploit their baffled boss' ignorance.

The Time cover wasn't the only hoax placed in front of Trump recently. Walsh left the White House and went on to advise a pro-Trump group.
